Yesterday I went to a screenprint workkshop at the mesh print club
A short workshop to learn the basic principles of screenprinting.
The first assignment was to make a design in one color.
I've made this girl with bird. (little cheating in the one color design,
I'm happy with her red cheeks :-))
I got a lot of information and learned new things, so I forgot to make pictures.
But there are two more workshop evenings.
Maybe I can show some pictures then, if I'm not too busy ;-)
Next time we are going to print a two color design.
I like the challenge of the limitation.
Hi, N. I love your black and white design, very well used the resource positive-negative, you're great!
ReplyDeleteI do not understand, if it is a single color, how are red cheeks?
do you painted it afterwards?
hehe, Roberto, that's a good question ;-)
ReplyDeleteIt is made with one screen. I taped the cheeks when I inkted it black. Cleaned the screen and afterwards I taped the girl and only left the cheeks open and did another go with red.
It was worth it :-)
Very cute!
ReplyDeleteScreenprinting "gets into your head", doesn't it? Especially when you limit yourself to one or two colors. A good challenge.
She looks very happy and makes me smile too.
ReplyDeletethanks for your explanation, Nelleke. This sounds like cheating, Ha Ha ;) good weekend! :)))))
